A kinetic study of the oxidation of pyrite in aqueous suspension.

This thesis describes a kinetib study of the oxidation of pyrite in aqueous suspension by molecular oxygen. The reaction is found to proceed by several simultaneous paths, the direct dissociation by molecular oxygen being predominant, i.e. , FeS₂ + O₂ (aq) fast → FeS₂. O₂ FeS₂. O₂ + O₂ (aq) slow →...
